Getting BB to Actually Rename Files

by gallant205 @
hi! please help me with a problem.

i'm very pleased with BB Pro, no problems save one:

if there's a file 14.jpg in my download folder, i expect BB to rename a new one coming in as 14(1).jpg, but it isn't doing that now. it's saying File "14.jpg" found in history by decoder. Discarding.

BB USED to rename the new file like i said, but not now, and i haven't to my knowledge changed anything.

help! TIA

This history overrides the the rename option. You can disable the history under the File menu. You might want to disable the filename history and enable the message-id history. That way you will avoid downloading the same article twice while allowing duplicate names.
